Hey, everybody. I am new to the forum and delighted to be apart of the group. I have been a Van Halen fan since 1978–since I was only 8 years old. My older sibling introduced me to Van Halen and I never looked back. I listen to VH everyday. I love both eras of Van Halen, but I prefer the Sammy years. I’ve seen VH in concert 18 times: 4 with Dave, 13 with Sammy, and 1 with Gary. I have a Van Halen logo tattoo, and I have owned numerous Eddie signature guitars.

I look forward to some great discussion on the past, present, and future of Van Halen.

And then upload your avatar. It needs to be square and of a certain minimum size (specs are somewhere on that site). Then it somehow magically appears here. (you need to make sure you use the same email address over there, as you use here). Be sure to wait 5 or 10 mins (or an hour) after uploading it for it to appear here.
